So, you have perl installed, since step 1 works, but then nmake can't find it in your path? Ah, you might want to check the makefile (ms\ntdll.mak) and see what it defines PERL to be. I don't have MASM (the assembler), so I add "no-asm" to my perl Configure command, and then it doesn't need to run perl (nor the assembler). ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
